Search data from database - php

Question

I want to display data from database. I created a search form but there is an error to display the result. Attached screenshot of the error.
In the database, consist of staff name and branch. The branch dropdown list, I get it from the database. Example of branch is Faculty Computer Science and Mathematics.
I think the error is in the model.
Can someone help me to fix my code
CONTROLLER
function filter_directory()
{
$search_term = $this->input->post('search_term');
$search_branch = $this->input->post('search_branch');
$data['search_term'] = $search_term;
$data['search_branch'] = $search_branch;
$data['branch_name'] = $this->direktori_model->get_branch_list();
$data['search_term'] = $this->input->get('search_term');
$data['search_branch'] =$this->input->get('search_branch');
$data['results'] = $this->direktori_model->get_directory_results($data['search_term'], $data['search_branch'], $config['per_page'], $page);
$this->load->view('directory/directory_list', $data);
}
MODEL
function get_directory_results($search_term, $search_branch, $limit=10, $offset=0)
{
$sql = "SELECT * FROM Staff_Profile
WHERE Name LIKE '%$search_term%'
AND Branch = {$search_branch}
AND Enabled = 'Y'
AND Lang ='BM'
ORDER BY ID ASC
OFFSET {$offset} ROWS
FETCH NEXT {$limit} ROWS ONlY";
$query = $this->db->query($sql);
return $query->result();
}
VIEW
<?php echo validation_errors();?>
<?php echo form_open("direktori/filter_directory", array('method' => 'get'));?>
<div class="row collapse">
<div class="medium-4 columns ">
<?php echo form_input(array('name' => 'search_term', 'id' => 'search-box', 'value' => $search_term)); ?>
</div>
<div class="medium-4 columns ">
<?php echo form_dropdown("search_branch", $branch_name, "", 'id="branch_id"');?>

<div class="medium-4 columns ">

Answer 1

In your query you must add quote after BRANCH
Your query:
SELECT * FROM staff_profile
where name Like '%anuar%'
and branch = BAHAGIAN KEWAIGAN & PENGURUSAN <-- ERROR
and enabled = 'Y' and lang = 'BM'
order by id asc offset o rows fetch next 10 rows only
Fixed query:
SELECT * FROM staff_profile
where name Like '%anuar%'
and branch = 'BAHAGIAN KEWAIGAN & PENGURUSAN'
and enabled = 'Y' and lang = 'BM'
order by id asc offset o rows fetch next 10 rows only

Answer 2

Error come in near branch. please put branch inside quotes.
$sql = "SELECT * FROM Staff_Profile
WHERE Name LIKE '%$search_term%'
AND Branch = '$search_branch'
AND Enabled = 'Y'
AND Lang ='BM'
ORDER BY ID ASC
OFFSET {$offset} ROWS
FETCH NEXT {$limit} ROWS ONlY";

Answer 3

use codeigniter syntax in the model
function get_directory_results($search_term, $search_branch, $limit=10, $offset=0){
$this->db->order_by('ID','ASC');
$this->db->like('Name',$search_term);
$this->db->where('Lang','BM');
$this->db->where('Enabled','Y');
$this->db->where('Branch',$search_term);
$query=$this->db->get('Staff_Profile',$limit,$offset);
return $query->result();
}
in this format you could port to any other BD and show you more easy the troubles that you have.
